It is imperative that Sabal Trail begin performing the remaining
surveys. Please consider this letter as Sabal Trail’s final request
for permission to conduct the surveys on a portion of your property….
Please note that Georgia statute O.C.G.A. 22-3-88, sets forth survey authority as
related to this Project which has been affirmed in Georgia Court.

Imperative for a company from Houston to profit by gouging through
local land and under our rivers and maybe into our aquifer.
Not imperative for those of us who live here.

I am not a lawyer, but it would appear that Sabal Trail is trying
to scare local landowners with a court decision that has nothing
to do with the county they live in.

The letter ends “Please do not hesitate to call”.
Maybe we should take Sabal Trail up on that offer.
And we should not hesitate to contact FERC about this, and local news media, and elected and appointed officials.

Sabal Trail Transmission, LLC (“Sabal Trail”) has communicated
to all landowners along the proposed route the importance and need
to perform civil, environmental and cultural resource surveys
(“survey activities”). To date you have declined to allow Sabal
Trail to perform the necessary survey activities on a portion of
your property. Because this fieldwork is necessary for FERC’s
continuing evaluation, we must complete the collection of data that
is outstanding We continue to encourage a collaborative approach and
ask you to reconsider your prior decision not to give permission for
the necessary survey work. As we have informed landowners who have
previously declined to grant survey permission,
granting survey permission provides us only access to your property
to complete the necessary survey activities; it
does not authorize us to put a pipeline on your land and
will not be used by Sabal Trail at any time to imply that you support
or agree with the Project.

It is imperative that Sabal Trail begin performing the remaining
surveys. Please consider this letter as Sabal Trail’s final request
for permission to conduct the surveys on a portion of your property.
Please respond to this letter or return the enclosed Survey
Authorization Form no later than Monday, March 16, 2015. Sabal Trail
welcomes the opportunity to respond to your concerns and request
reasonable conditions for the necessary survey activities across a
portion of your property.

The FERC produced brochure entitled “An Interstate Natural Gas
Facility on My Land? What Do I Need to Know?” which was mailed to
each landowner, available at each of our public meetings and can be
found on the FERC and Sabal Trail web sites, discusses the need for
the applicant (Sabal Trail) to perform various surveys and states
that “[t]he company may ask you for permission to access your land
to conduct civil and environmental survevs.” The brochure also
specifically notes that “some states have laws that allow a
company to get access to property for survey purposes.” Please
note that Georgia statute O.C.G,A. 22-3-88, sets forth survey
authority as related to this Project which has been affirmed in
Georgia court.

We are making this final request in an effort to avoid any formal
legal process available to the company limited to onlv survey
activities. Please remember that whether voluntarily or through the
legal system, our access to your property to conduct these necessary
surveys does not authorize Sabal Trail to build a pipeline on your
property.

Please do not hesitate to call our lacal office at 229-326-3211
should you have any questions or would like to receive any
additional information. sincerely,
